NURSERY CLASS

MALLARDS

Mallards is a long established Nursery Class led by an experienced, fully qualified teacher. Mrs Taylor has extensive teaching experience and a real passion for teaching in the early years!  Our nursery is very much part of the wider school and the children join in with key events and celebrations throughout the year.

We have 42 places available with a maximum of 21 children in any single session. 

Our nursery morning session runs from 8:30am to 11:30am, and afternoon session is from 12:00pm to 3:00pm.  Our lunch session runs from 11:30am to 12:00pm.
We offer the universal entitlement of 15 funded hours and we also offer the extended entitlement of 30 hours for those who qualify.  All sessions, and our lunch session, can be included in funded hours (if entitlement is sufficient) or changed at our standard rates.
Charges (from September 2025) for non-funded bookings are £19.50 per 3 hour session and £3.25 for our lunch session.

Please contact the school office on 01491 836408 or email office@st-nicholas.co.uk to request a registration form, or download one - see below.   Our Nursery Admissions Policy can also be found below.  This includes details of how nursery places are allocated when more applications are received than there are places available.

Please note that the process of applying for a place in our nursery class is separate to that of applying for a place in school for the Reception year.
